character: Damon Salvatore

Ian Somerhalder as Damon
Damon Salvatore is a deadly (but sexy!) piece of work. A blood-sucking playboy, he’s the rebel to his brother Stefan’s saint. Witty, charming, and oh-so-fine, the elder Salvatore brother is a regular people person. Erm, except for the fact he’s got this nasty habit of feeding on people...

Damon loved his vamp maker Katherine with a fierce devotion and he has spent the last century trying to find her. It was this search that brought him back to Mystic Falls last year where he met his little brother’s girlfriend, Elena — who happens to be a dead-ringer for Katherine. A sadistic slut puppy on the surface, we think Damon could go monogamous with a girl like Katherine or Elena. But in the meantime, he’ll go on treating women like playthings. Boo.  

But don’t sell this vamp too short! Damon can (and occasionally does) do good. After all, he did save Stefan from a mob of tomb vampires! Though, trust us: this dude only does an honorable deed if it behooves his vampire self... and somehow involves Elena.

Fast Facts:
  1. Born June 18, 1844, Damon is 166 years old.
  2. In The Vampire Diaries novels by L.J. Smith, Damon was born in Italy. His homeland has not yet been revealed on the television series.
  3. Damon’s vampire powers include creating and controlling fog, jumping some stellar heights, and controlling minds.

While some would argue there’s no such thing as a bad Damon (Ian Somerhalder), there’s no doubt he’s a snarky bloodsucker who can have anger issues. Of course, recently he’s put his fangs away on The Vampire Diaries and become a kinder, gentler, less murder-happy version of himself.

Guess who ships Delena, Vampire Diaries fans? Mr. Ian Somerhalder (Damon Salvatore)! We suppose it’s not surprising that the actor would want his character and Elena (Nina Dobrev) to be together, but he told Zap2It at The CW upfronts how crushed he was that she chose Stefan (Paul Wesley) over Damon in the Season 3 finale.

No time will pass between The Vampire Diaries Season 3 finale and the start of the new season — in Mystic Falls time, that is. Everyone’s going to be processing the twists and coping with the changes, but that doesn’t mean executive producer Julie Plec isn’t looking ahead to the future for a new love interest for the jilted Salvatore brother.
